the health of our kids. there will be no competitive san francisco or global economy or a bloom on the city if we don't invest in what makes the city our greatest. it isn't the technology t is the polesh of the children. i want to thank you on behalf of the ymca i my colleagues and the generation to precede, but i want would like to say you will make the biggest diferance in whether the children of the city have the opportunity that they are entitled to. thank you very much. >> congratulations commissioner cauline squz thank you for your hard work in the community and in the fill more for many years. you look younger than you are, but you are not the old est person in the chamber. you are, norman? you can have a battle on that after this presentationism we will move on to district 4 >> thank you supervisor bree. tfs great listening to the honorees we had today and here about the diverse conbution they made. today i'm honored to present accommodation for major price mont gomry she has the jrotc program at lincoln high school. we talked bewit the students education, i think it is so important the outside experience as well. today that is why we a

embodiment of the netherlands' independent political aspirations, an expression of amsterdam as a free city at the center of the world. in the 17th century, the dutch city of amsterdam was the greatest economic power in the world, a vast marketplace where every kind of goods could be had-- pepper, whale oil, japanese lacquer, cloth, wine. the dutch became rich. they were the most urban society in europe-- literate, stable, well-fed, and decently housed. they knew themselves to be fortunate. they strongly identified with the chosen people of the old testament, with all that implied about obedience to god's will. in this peculiar new society, artists couldn't look to the traditional sources of patronage. there was no royal court. the churches had no pictures, as we can see in this painting of the mariakerk in utrecht by pietersz saenredam. nevertheless, the netherlands experienced an explosion in the production and consumption of art. the first mass art market in history arose because for the first time, ordinary people bought paintings, etchings, drawings. artists produced in large quantity for that market. the society was defining itself in the images it produced. the simplicity of
